The advantages of high rise handlebars.

Hi everyone,

Just wondering what the advantages to high rise bars are.

I currently run truvativ husslefelt dh bars, which don't have heaps of rise, and am thinking about getting the Inspired Arcade Riser bars.

I'd like to make the bike (24" marino) a little more easy to manual and bunnyhop, am I right in thinking higher rise bars make the bike more 'flickable'?

Cheers.

I changed from similar bars and it makes a massive difference, bunnyhops and manuals are easier and my body position feels better, I just got arcade risers, been running da bomb tactics, they are both really nice bars, not sure if I preferred the da bombs, not rode these much yet though.

Are the advantages of high rise bars limited to short setups? Like 70mm stem, short wheelbase bikes.

i found that the higher rise bars only bring an advantage when mounted "upright",doesnt have to do with the kind of bike theyre on
